Concentrated Solar Power (CSP) is a rapidly growing renewable energy technology that harnesses the sun’s heat to generate electricity. Unlike photovoltaic (PV) systems, which convert sunlight directly into electricity, CSP uses mirrors or lenses to concentrate sunlight onto a small area, typically a tower or a series of tubes containing a heat transfer fluid. This …
Concentrated solar power (CSP) has long been touted as a promising renewable energy source, with the potential to significantly reduce greenhouse gas emissions and our reliance on fossil fuels. One of the key advantages of CSP over other renewable energy sources, such as photovoltaics (PV), is its ability to store thermal energy for use when …
